Auction result well in line with expectations
In September this year Bonhams in London held the auction Fine Japanese and Korean Art, which included the work Asa (Hemp) by Yuichi Inoue. The price achieved of USD 48,640.00 (€ 45,956.16) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yuichi Inoue achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Shisso (Painted In 1972) in April this year with an auction result of HKD 504,000.00 (€ 514,682.61).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September diesen Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Fine Japanese and Korean Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Asa (Hemp) von Yuichi Inoue zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 48.640,00 (€ 45.956,16) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yuichi Inoue erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Shisso (Painted In 1972) im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 504.000,00 (€ 514.682,61).
